University of Amsterdam; Honest review
Tips: Language is an important part of long-term living in the country. Internships can be done at any time and preferably during your studies only. There is not that much of a cultural difference for most urban students, and there are multiple campuses in the university, so it's varied.
Likes (Safety): It's a very safe city. I feel it's the common consensus that it's very safe for Europe. Amsterdam has good street lighting, a visible police presence, and a general culture of looking out for one another. I never felt unsafe at any point during my time here.
Dislikes (Part time work): Language barrier and visa issues are the two main hurdles for part-time work. If you have both sorted, it becomes fairly manageable alongside academics. On-campus jobs exist but are limited. Off-campus opportunities are more common, typically paying around minimum wage.

BSc Economics and Business Economics - Batch of 2028
4.6
It’s pretty good and I have learned a lot
Tips: Make sure you check the dropout rate because it’s a very academically oriented university. Education is quite hard and very fast-paced, and even though getting into the university is quite easy, the dropout rate for my course is 50-60 percent, and that’s scary.
Likes (Public transportation): It’s amazing; the Netherlands has the best transportation infrastructure system in the world, and it’s very affordable, around 100 a month. Also, there are tons of monthly and weekly passes and also student discounts as well as weekend passes, so it’s pretty good.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I would definitely settle in this country, but the two problems are housing and taxes, and it makes a lot of difference for a student. Also, one other issue is the wage gap between women and men, which is an important factor to keep in mind. So check everything before you come.

Beyond traditional way of learning.
Tips: The university is a research based university. Do not expect the traditional way of learning like in India. The classes are interactive and you need to be prepared before the classes. The exams are very different, mostly open book but includes very specific way of learning. The environment is international but if you need to find a job, you will need to learn Dutch at some point. It's an English speaking country but still, Dutch is very prominent.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport in the city is excellent but expensive. But it's a biking city. You can have your bike and it's the most affordable way to get around. The connectivity around the country is very good and accessible. It's expensive. But you can always bike around which is cheap.
Dislikes (Part time work): The university does not have a network and does not help you with part time work or internships. As a student you are allowed 16 hours of work in a week which you need to find urself. Since the course is quite intense, it's not easy to work or intern with the course. If you take an internship which isn't easy to get since it's a Dutch speaking country you do get some credit for the course but not in all cases.

The job market is not good at the moment.
Tips: It all takes time adjusting. Must look at the job market and types of jobs for the industry you are aiming for since sometimes the study might not be the best for getting a job. Need to be very vocal; otherwise, bureaucracy rules might affect you negatively, but overall amazing.

An enriching experience at the UoA.
Tips: There has been an assimilation with people of different cultures, and an introspective identity communion. The understanding of a bigger picture mentality when you interact with students from all lands and walks of life, one means that you learn more than ever. No scholarships availed.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Very approachable faculty with an extra effort to resolve difficulties. The teaching methodology was fool-proof, academic and meticulous focus on an analytical and research-based curriculum, leading to very investigative and intrinsic learning of concepts. Very diverse from all content.
